Articles (for Bree?)

I am interested in developing some articles for Bree and the website.

Some ideas came to mind from chatting to people in the office, titles
follow. We're thinking of writing them up, what I would like is either a
player who would be happy to write it up themselves, or possible points to
put into the articles that we might not have considered, or other article
ideas or fully written articles. They are generally great to read and very
interesting even if you don't agree with the points made. (Note lots are
from our experience as players so clearly have our bias in them -
unavoidable I am afraid - they will be written as pieces from a player.)

Articles (working) titles:
10/10/10 Characters are bad
Gunboat - a player's viewpoint
How to create a Fourth Age Nation
BOFA - you're not dead until the fat lady sings
Why Emissaries are bad in 1650
Team player - what makes a good team player
Why Commanders are good in 1650
Encounters - how best to pick up your favourite item when competing
Ithil Pass - a few strategy guides
Road Building in FA
10 Commanders rule!
"You've got to put down the duck" how to play the Noldo
Mantle uses - it's not just a pretty artefact
Why DS win 1650
100% Tax

As you can see we have lots of ideas here - time to do them all - well we
don't know. None of us have a lot of 2950 experience so we'd like something
written for that as well. Any takers?

Anyone want to do any of these or their own? We need some more contributions for Bree please.

Hi Clint,

I have a couple of ideas for Bree articles: 2950
stuff mostly, since that is my favored scenerio. What
is the deadline? What do contributors get for
submissions? (Besides fame and mega-karma?)

You get a free turn for each article you write (not game report). No deadline as such - when we get enough items together Colin puts it together and I send it out. You also get our good wishes and thoughts which sometimes turns into free turns if we're testing things out and need some reliable players to help out... :slight_smile:

A silly distinction. Some of the turn reports have been great reads, some of the articles (more than a few actually) have been feeble. You should use your judgement - if an article (including turn reports) is of a certain length (though don't state it) and of reasonable quality then grant a free turn. If this is too hard, then delegate the power to Colin or an "editorial team", perhaps you allocate a set number of free turns for each edition, and the best 5, 7 or 10 contributions get them.

We're looking to create a Christmas Bree - so here's some of the topics I've sent to the list as before. But if you have anything that you think might be suitable for the season, the new film etc, then please get them to me.

Thanks
Clint

Saw this and thought it would still be great to see them.

Anyone fancy writing up an article or two? (You get a free turn for each!)
